How does FDM (Free Download Manager) determine a file's date and time?


I assume many of you use download managers. I use the Free Download Manager, and I like it a lot. But I am confused about how this valuable tool determines the date and time of the file it downloads.

For example, I downloaded the PDF file from
https://www.cusd80.com/cms/lib/AZ01001175/Centricity/Domain/10180/The%20Crucible%20Anchor%20Text.pdf

And it sets the file's date-time as following
| Created: ‎Friday, ‎September ‎20, ‎2019, ‏‎6:12:36 PM

When I checked HTTP headers, I found this information
| last-modified: Wed, 12 Sep 2018 15:22:28 GMT

When I checked the creation date-time recorded in the PDF file, I found
| Created: Wed, 12 Sep 2018 8:21:12 GMT


Does anyone have any idea where the 2019 date listed above comes from?


Solution

  • uncheck the option "use server time for file creation" under preferences -> general -> downloads. this will the creation time actual download time
